A Trading Thread: Investments, Flips, and big Scores!

Hello All!  We're trying to bring back some of the more social aspects of the old forums.  We always had threads related to trading that sparked conversation about what folks were investing in, or potential flips, or the good old lazy buyer method (not as good as it used to be but it does still work!).  Oh yeah, how could I forget. . .the Bronze Pack Method, oh the good old days!

Leaks play a huge part in trading unfortunately and if you don't get the info before everyone else you are often late to the show. . .so what I try to do is think ahead of the leaks.

Currently, I'm investing in Gold Messi; now that we're seeing 88 max req EVOS, we should get something Messi fits in that hopefully boosts his speed and adds some CAM roles.  If an EVO hits and he's a main man, I should double my coins!  Bought him at 12k, will sell at his max of 24k . . . or if he's that desired, maybe they increase his range due to none being on the market, only time will tell if this is a good one!

One of my other wins this year was buying lots of 90 and 91 rated cards at when they bottomed out and as SBCs with higher requirements have been consistent they've jumped in price!  I bought when they were around 18k and sold at 35k!  I made about 800k in coins from this and ripped two Icon guarantee packs from the store and packed really crappy Icons :(.

How are all of you making coins??  Feel free to post your big sales!
